What’s coming soon to Sky and NOW TV in November 2017?

With The Walking Dead, Arrow, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, The Deuce and Curb Your Enthusiasm arriving every week – not to mention The Good Doctor and the conclusion of Tin Star, there’s more than enough on Sky and NOW TV’s catch-up plate to nibble at over the coming month. November, though, doesn’t skimp on the US drama imports, from the return of Grey’s Anatomy and Madam Secretary to Scandal. Sky original shows, meanwhile, include Sick Note, ongoing episodes of Bounty Hunters, and the promising German police drama Babylon Berlin.

The month’s best gems, though, can be found on Sky Box Sets, as Band of Brothers, The Pacific and Quarry all return for binge-watching on-demand.

Don’t have Sky? You can stream all of the above live and on-demand through NOW TV, Sky’s contract-free VOD service, which costs £7.99 a month. For more information, click here.

Sky Cinema, meanwhile, serves up some of the last year’s bigger movies, including Fifty Shades Darker and Assassin’s Creed, but it’s the smaller titles that again deliver the goods, from low-key Spanish drama The Olive Tree to Ti West’s indie Western In a Valley of Violence, which quietly skipped UK cinemas and went to DVD and VOD earlier this year.

Again, if you don’t have Sky, you can stream all of Sky Cinema live and on-demand through NOW TV, for £9.99 a month. For more information on that, click here.

Here’s your guide to what’s coming soon in October 2017:
